Putting in place stringent measures to ensure flight safety, aviation regulator DGCA has come out with detailed guidelines related to alcohol consumption for airlines crew for both pre and post-flight periods.
The measures include maintaining separate records of pre-flight and post-flight breath analyser examination for the flight crew as well as keeping them off the roaster for three months in case of violations.
In its latest circular titled ‘Procedure for medical examination of aircraft personnel for alcohol consumption’, the DGCA has said that the operator should maintain all breath analyser examination records for a period of one year.
“The operator shall maintain separate records of pre-flight and post-flight breath analyser examination for the flight crew, cabin crew and maintenance personnel. All the relevant records must be preserved for a period of one year,” the circular, dated August 4, said.
